Jared Goff is on the verge of making NFL history and he could do it as soon as this weekend. If the Lions quarterback attempts 44 pa ses on Sunday against the Seahawks and doesn't throw an interception, he'll set the NFL record for most pa s attempts without throwing a pick.The current record is held by Aaron Rodgers, which means one former Cal star could end up pa sing another former Cal
star on the all-time list.Goff closed out the 2022 season by making 324 straight pa s attempts without throwing an interception. If you add that to the 35 pa ses that Goff threw in Week 1 against the Chiefs, that means the veteran QB has now thrown 359 straight pa ses without an interception, which is the third-longest streak in NFL history.The third-longest streak previously belonged to Tom Brady, who went 358 pa s attempts without throwing a pick while playing for the . By moving up to third, Goff is now inching closer to Rodgers' all-time NFL record. Besides Rodgers, the only other
player ahead of Goff on the all-time list is Brady. If you're wondering how that's po sible, it's because Brady held the second and third-longest streaks in NFL history. Goff has pa sed Patriots QB Tom Brady on the all-time list, but he's still behind QB Tom Brady.Here's a look at the top-five longest streaks in NFL history without throwing an interception:1. Aaron Rodgers, : 402 pa s attempts (2018)2. Tom Brady, Buccaneers: 399 pa s attempts (2022)3. Jared Goff, Lions: 359 pa s attempts (2022-23)4. Tom Brady, Patriots: 358 pa s attempts (2010-11)5. , : 332 pa s attempts (2018) For his part, Goff said that topping Rodgers' record hasn't been on his mind this week."It's really not," Goff said, . "It's been a lot of things. Obviously, we've been playing well, taking care of the ball and then there's a lot of luck in it. We have balls batted that hit
the ground that doesn't always happen, so yeah, there's a lot of a few different things."Even if Goff doesn't pa s Rodgers, he could still end up second on the all-time list if he throws 41 pa ses without an interception. That would allow him to once again pa s Brady. Of course, even if he doesn't break the record against the Seahawks, that doesn't mean he won't eventually break it. If Goff can make it through
his Week 2 game without throwing a pick, he'll get another opportunity to break the record in Week 3 against the Falcons.Goff hasn't thrown an interception since Week 9 of the 2022 season, when he threw one in a win over the Packers.In Week 1 against the Chiefs, Goff never really came close to throwing a pick on a night where he completed 22 of 35 pa ses for 253 yards and one touchdown. Goff has kept his streak alive even though he's not exactly playing it safe. Not only is he making some challenging throws, but he's completing them. Dime from Jared Goff. But look where his slot receiver is at the release point. Streaking open for a touchdown Ian Valentino
(@NFLDraftStudy) Goff might not ever reach the same career accolades as Brady and Rodgers, but pa sing them both in the record book would definitely be an achievement that the former No. 1 overall pick could be proud of.
